She is so right. Quit being so stubborn and listen, you don't have all the answers "know-it-all".
this is the instant message conversation i had with my sister in law on friday.
it makes me so sad because i think that she in her heart recognizes the truth of what i am saying, but then the jw brainswashing takes over and she just stops thinking.. sorry it's so long!!.
c: you are very special to me.. c: i love you deeply.

the funny thing about it is, it's not far from the truth.. .
coming soon to a congregation near you!!!!.
elder voice mail.
geez, it's just a joke
a couple of months ago i was addicted to this board when the whole un thing was going on.
i really thought that the exposure of the wts's involvement would open the door for me to walk away from the wt without reprucussions, you know, a valid excuse so as to not be shunned.
(a pipe dream, i know) .
Farkel: It is an honest organization. The UN did not prove that. It was blown up by apostates to make it look dishonest. The watchtower explained their position very well. Someone posted that letter from them.
joel: sorry to disappoint you.
outlaw: your a perfect example of what I said to Farkel, you will do anything and say anything to make Jehovahs organization look bad. You think your point will be heard if you curse the hell out of a person. Grow up.

Is anyone else disappointed that nothing more came of it?
This is just too funny. Apostates again tried to make a big deal out of nothing! Did it work? Hell no!
well this is the day.. i mentioned to my mum that i read a good book recently about dates, and cronology.. she blew up and told me i was just trying to read anything that attempts to disprove jws.. apparently i am like those apostates, and people didnt want to talk to my because of it.. "this is the truth", she said.. well i am now an apostate.
it doesnt feel as bad as i thought it would.. josephus
Its different because those religions do not teach the basic truth. For example: Catholics teach the trinity, which is not biblical. That's just one example.

When I read literature published by WTS, I always compare and reason through the scriptures in the articles. I come to my own conclusions. Yes I read the literature, but I also read the Bible daily. I have made good use of other Bible Concordances in my research. These not being published by the WTS.
As for the jugdement of the organization. I believe some in the organization will be judged, not everyone. And yes it can still be its mouthpiece. Israelites were his people and were judged harshly. Of course, you knew I was going to say that.
i was just wondering if anyone knows what year the jw's banned smoking and celebrating christmas.
plus, anyone here still know active jw's that still smoke secretly?
i know a couple that do.
SS: hey no mind reading allowed.
we are not jehovah's witnesses because of a variety of circumstances, but one thing we all share is that we question.. what factors come together to make us questioners?.
intelligence?
but i know a lot of very smart non-questioning jehovah's witnesses.. bravery?
If I get to 70 in this system of things then I would have had the satisfaction of having served Jehovah wholeheartedly all of my life. If I die tomorrow, well I have faith that Jehovah will resurrect me. Either way I win.

I certainly don't think I have all the answers. Let's get down to basics. Jesus spoke of the end. Revelation speaks of Armageddon. My goal is simply to make it through to a new system of things. That's it. Many questions will be answered then.
